Monodevelop unusable on x86_64
Last modified: 2007-12-23 19:31:16 UTC
Monodevelop is unusable on x86_64 for development since it wont find the Gtk# (and other) libraries. The problem is that pkg-config files are installed into /usr/lib64/pkg-config, but MD looks for them in /usr/lib/pkg-config. From monodevelop.in: MD_PKG_CONFIG_PATH=@gtksharp_prefix@/lib/pkgconfig/:/usr/lib/pkgconfig/:/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/:/usr/share/pkgconfig/:/usr/local/share/pkgconfig/ I filed this as a bug in openSUSE since it would be nice if it was fixed for 10.3, but since this is/was an issue on other distributions too (eg. Fedora) it could be moved to the Monodevelop component.
It's fixed for 10.3 with the Monodevelop version in the Mono repository on buildservice. http://software.opensuse.org/search?p=1&q=monodevelop&baseproject=openSUSE%3A10.3 It doesn't require mono upgrades, so it won't cause issues to the system :-) Regards, Alberto
